On: Why we choose Java instead of a polyglot stack

[autoreleasepool]

I agree the syntax is sensible. I quite like it in Swift:

    protocol Numeric {
        func +(lhs: Self, rhs: Self) -> Self
    }

    func<T: Numeric>(a: T, b: T) -> T {
        return a + b
    }

[autoreleasepool → autoreleasepool]

Correction: Function name.

    func add<T: Numeric>(a: T, b: T) -> T {
        return a + b
    }
